About the Event
Guitarist, producer and bandleader Steve Freund was praised by Rolling Stone for his "masterful, no-nonsense guitar work" and has appeared on over 50 albums, including the legendary Koko Taylor’s Grammy-winning “Blues Explosion.” Steve was Sunnyland Slim's main guitarist and has also worked with Big Walter Horton, Floyd Jones, and harmonica legend James Cotton.
In addition to his guitar career, Steve is an accomplished piano accompanist who has worked with Pinetop Perkins, Jimmy Walker, Henry Gray, Erwin Helfer and many more. Daniel Castro learned his craft in the South Central L.A. blues clubs alongside “Mighty Mouth” Delmar Evans, before recording and touring with artists including Small Faces singer-bassist Ronnie Lane. In 1995, he formed The Daniel Castro Band, releasing two albums under that name. He now plays regularly with bassist Johnny Yu and drummer David Perper.
Blues Defenders hosts a weekly concert with headliners and swing dancing. Followed by Pro Jam.
